AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) has a major security vulnerability in the latest
stable (4.7.2480) and beta (4.8.2616) Windows versions. This vulnerability
will allow remote penetration of the victim’s system without any indication
as to who performed the attack. There is no opportunity to refuse the
request. This does not affect the non-Windows versions, because the
non-Windows versions currently do not yet support the feature that this
vulnerability occurs in.
